To the original post:

1.) This is the same stock image that TSA has released eons ago. It seems to show a woman imaged with millimeter wave technology. Backscatter x-ray images are far sharper and show more detail.

2.) It is EXTREMELY worrisome that TSA has only released less than a handful of pictures taken BY TSA THEMSELVES! To my knowledge there are less than 10 images available altogether.

3.) Definitely, critics of these machines (or artists) would be willing to donate a picture of themselves if TSA would let them publish a full-resolution image. Why is TSA not willing to do this? Does TSA think it might hurt their cause?

4.) The few low-res pictures that TSA has published all show how clearly these machines can identify dangerous items LIKE KNIVES AND GUNS. Yet it is exactly THESE items that these machines are NOT meant to identify. (A metal detector can do this better and faster). Talk about misleading the public.

Thanks for your attention.
